    It’s illegal to discriminate based on older age. This sounds like whataboutism. Always expect someone to bring it back to attack Biden.

      If congress can enforce a mandatory retirement age for airline pilots, they can have a mandatory retirement age for anything.

      Unfortunately, the people making the rules dont want to put themselves out of a job…

      I’d like to see representation in government that fits the demographics that are being represented, more or less. There’s no room for change in government though, too few seats and too much money involved. “We’ve always done it this way” is in charge.
